To find the best travel insurance plan for your trip, you want to know which plans worked well for other customers. All of our travel insurance reviews were submitted by customers who purchased a plan on our site. These reviews cover the spectrum including travel health insurance, cruise insurance, comprehensive travel insurance and last minute travel insurance.

InsureMyTrip evaluates all of the reviews posted on the site. "Anytime Advocates" - a team of licensed, uncommissioned travel insurance representatives - are available to assist any customer who may need help facilitating a claim or answering questions about a purchased plan before, during or after their trip.

It seems good, but I've never had to use it. My luggage was delayed and thought that was covered, but it isn't. The customer service lady that explained that wasn't the friendliest, but that seems to be a problem in many businesses. This is the third time I've used them, but I've never had anything happen in which I would have needed to use it.

Relatively easy to sign up online, and seemed to promise adequate coverage. Rather expensive, however, especially considering the brief timeframe covered and the trip costs involved. Extrapolated to an annual rate, this coverage would have cost about $3,000. Would counsel anyone considering this coverage to shop carefully to see if they can find similar coverage for less. I did not have to use the policy - so no idea of how well they honor their promises.

I didn’t have to use it thank goodness but never travel without it. One time I had to use trip insurance through insure my trip (not Nationwide)and they covered everything. The representatives at Insure My Trip were very knowledgeable and helpful.

I purchased the TravelSafe Classic plan through InsureMyTrip for a planned trip to Antarctica with my sister. Unfortunately we had to cancel the trip a month before our travel when our mother got sick and was moved into hospice care. We completed all the forms and compiled all the documentation, which took days and amounted to well over a hundred pages of paperwork. We submitted everything then used their online claim status form to track the progress.

My claim was marked as received and printed, then nothing changed. After over a month with no progress I called TravelSafe and the agent scoffed at my request, said there was no possible way to expedite my claim, and I'd just have to wait.

Two months in, still nothing had changed, while my sister's identical claim had gone through several rounds of supplemental information requests. I called again and this time the agent was sympathetic and said she'd expedite my claim (so it is possible?).

Two weeks later, 2.5 months since receiving my claim, STILL nothing had changed. This time I contacted InsureMyTrip. They responded the next day asking for my claim number, and within a week they had negotiated the full payment of my claim. Meanwhile my sister is still waiting on her claim.

In the end TravelSafe paid out my claim, so I'm mostly satisfied with the plan and coverage. But their claim service was terrible, and I'm not sure how long I would have waited for reimbursement - or even if I would have been reimbursed - if it weren't for the help of InsureMyTrip. So the high ratings here are really thanks to and for InsureMyTrip. Thanks!

Not much to report. We bought the policy and thankfully didn't need to use it as everything was AOK on our trip. However, the price was very competitive and included all of the things we needed to protect ourselves in the event of illness.

I had to update the coverage because my trip has been pushed back couple times and Mary S. has been very helpful and attentive providing updated coverage card quickly. She has been such a pleasure to work with.

Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip because our beloved cat got terribly ill less than a week before we were to leave. Since I cannot find any trip insurance that covers pet illness/emergencies as a covered reason for canceling or interrupting a trip (which I do not understand as pets are family members and they can have emergencies too), I always look for the "cancel for any reason" benefit on policies, and this one also had the "interrupt for any reason" benefit. Luckily we realized we had to cancel in enough time to be covered as I found out that even though we had "cancel for any reason" coverage, if it had been less than two days (I think) before the beginning of our trip we wouldn't have been covered, so check your policy details for this "hole" in coverage time. I believe that there are some gaps in time for "interrupt for any reason," too.

At any rate, when I called C&F they were very responsive, helpful, and pleasant. I was able to email them all of the documents they needed for my claim and I got a nice phone call several weeks later letting me know the claim was approved and the check was on its way. I ended up buying the exact same policy when we re-booked our trip after our kitty passed away since we had a good experience with this company.
